A metal-free synthesis of biologically important benzazepines is achieved through a single synthetic operation involving an oxidative C–H bond functionalization and ring expansion with diazomethanes as key reagent. This represents a new, strong methodology for the straightforward construction of the seven-ring N-heterocyclic structures under mild conditions using a 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl (TEMPO) oxoammonium salt as oxidant. Moderate to good yields are achieved from simple, readily available tetrahydroisoquinolines, and this methodology has been further successfully applied for the synthesis of the 3-benzazepine drug Lorcaserin. A possible mechanistic pathway for the ring expansion step, comprising the extrusion of nitrogen in a concerted asynchronic process, is proposed based on both mechanistic proof and density function theory (DFT) calculations.

We report on the synthesis, biological evaluation and structure-activity relationships for a series of 3-benzazepine derivatives as 5-HT2C receptor agonists. The compounds were evaluated in functional assays measuring [3H] phosphoinositol turnover in HEK-293 cells transiently transfected with h5-HT2C, h5-HT2A or h5-HT2B receptors. Several compounds are shown to be potent and selective 5-HT 2C receptor agonists, which decrease food intake in a rat feeding model.
